During rainy weather! I love the rain, especially when I’m indoors. I love curling up in bed with a fuzzy blanket, a cup of hot chocolate or tea on the side table, and read read read. While traveling on a coach from Windsor Castle back to London, it rained. Hard. The next minute everything was white. That was my first snow experience ever and I was thinking… this would be perfect if there was a charming book in my hands right now!

The beach — well, every time I’m on a beach I’m doing something else like catching up with family and friends so the bedroom with the rain pitter-pattering on the roof works very well for me.

12 thoughts on “Reading in the rain”

I always have a book or my Kindle with me and love to find time to read where ever my travels take me. If at home I set aside time to read every day often after lunch, in the garden in the shade in the summer and curled up by the fire in the winter.

I can, but helpful reviews abound on the web already. I’m sharing these titles for the pleasure of reading, and to add color to my default job of reviewing a.k.a dissecting academic books all the time offline. But if you are really keen on reading reviews poke me and I’ll direct you to the links; although we both know that would be hardly necessary 😉
